From the Pastor’s Office12th Sunday in Ordinary Time
We are all pretty familiar with the great characters of the Bible. In all their
stories God called them to do a particular work for Him. So many of them
were called to be prophets. The twelve Apostles had their great struggles
learning the way of Apostleship. In the early Church, the first missionaries,
people like Paul, had it tough. Recently I was reading from one of Paul’s
letters. He tells the community at Ephesus that is was time for him to
move on. He was heading for Jerusalem. He knew that in Jerusalem he
would be arrested. This is what he says, “Now, compelled by the Spirit, I
am going to Jerusalem. What will happen to me there I do not know, except
that in one city after another the Holy Spirit has been warning me that
imprisonment and hardships await me. Yet I consider life of no importance
to me, if only I may finish the course and the ministry I received from the
Lord Jesus.” All of us who try to live a spiritual life have to put our trust in
God. The key thing to say is that we must allow ourselves to be compelled
by the Spirit. I can’t live a spiritual life if I won’t allow myself to be compelled
by the Spirit. None of us has supernatural courage. Lots of times we have
no idea what to say. We wonder what the right thing to do and say is. But
if I walk close to God He will guide me. Let me be compelled by the Spirit.
I have always felt sorry for Jeremiah. He will always be known as the reluc-
tant prophet. He had a hard mission. His job was to enter the court of the
King and bellow God’s words at him. The King chose to be deaf. Therefore,
Jeremiah had to shout all the louder. Jeremiah paid a price for his bold
words. “I hear the whisperings of many; Terror on every side.” The thing is
Jeremiah spoke bold challenging words to the King. But once spoken they
cannot be unspoken. How often when we are in a fight with someone we
say, “You take that back!” The words have been spoken. They take on a
life of their own. What ever about the King choosing to be deaf, at least he
knows. From the beginning Jesus warned his followers. If you choose to
follow me then you better carry a cross with you, because they will condemn
you over me. To dare to speak the words of Jesus in public is a dangerous
thing. People will either love you for them or they will set out to destroy
you. Once those words are spoken, there is no taking them back. If I do
speak let my words be inspiring words from God. Let God speak through
me. What’s the worst that can happen? They will crucify me. Seen it. Been
there. Done that.
With love,
Fr. Pat

FAMILY FAITH & GENERATIONS OF FAITH 2020 SUMMER CHALLENGE “CHALLENGE”: Traditionally, Summer Challenge is a
week of fun, faith formation and service for our middle school students. Teams
come together to learn about our Catholic faith and the spirituality of service before
being sent out around Austin to serve. This year, we have to be creative! Summer
Challenge is an important part of who we are at St. Catherine and we're not willing
to let COVID-19 stop us! More than ever we need to help our young people learn
to be part of the common good by putting others before themselves and give their
time, talent and treasures so others might have a better life. The program will
look different this year, that is why we're calling it the 2020 Summer Challenge
CHALLENGE! It will take place the week of July 12. For more information and to

WELCOME TO ORDINARY TIME: The color
green in the church today tells us that as a
church we have returned to what is called
Ordinary Time. Actually here the word
‘ordinary’ does not mean ‘routine’ but ra-
ther ‘counted’ or ‘numbered’ time; these are the weeks of the
church calendar that are not part of the seasons of Advent,
Christmas, Lent or Easter, but are simply numbered through
the 34th week when we conclude the church year with the
Solemnity of Christ the King. Ordinary Time leaves us to the
ongoing challenges of building the Kingdom. We listen to the
Word of God, which continues to beckon to us as Christians to
internalize the teachings of Jesus and to live them out day by
day. Our daily task that is the same one Jesus had: to proclaim
the Good News of God by our lives, words and actions. This is
hardly an ‘ordinary’ mission! And so the prayers of the Mass
ask for the grace and gifts needed to accomplish this work,
and they carry the same message: “Bring forth the Kingdom!”
HELP US KEEP EVERYONE SAFER – ARRIVE EARLY TO MASS!
As more people return to attending Mass in person, the effort
to manage the seating and movement of the congregation
becomes more challenging. At the same time, many of our
volunteers remain unable to serve due to concerns over the
coronavirus. To help us make things go more smoothly and to
help ensure yourself a place in the church:
• Arrive early for Mass.
• Follow the instructions of the Ushers, especially during
Communion and at dismissal at the end of Mass.
IN CELEBRATION OF INDEPENDENCE DAY, our offices
will be closed Fri., July 3 and Mon., July 6. Daily
Masses will be celebrated at Noon.
THE READINGS FOR SUNDAY MASS are available on the parish
website, as well as the text of the Gloria and Creed. Visit the
livestream page and click the button that says ‘Worship Aid.’
When you enter the church, use your smartphone camera and
the QR codes on posters in the Narthex to go directly to the
worship aid page.

this weekend are donated by
Carl and Cheryl Disher
in celebration of their

CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHING CORNER:
June 20-21, 12th Sunday in Ordinary Time
In today’s Gospel, we are encouraged to be fearless in the face
of opposition. We have a responsibility to contribute to the
good of society in a spirit of truth, justice, solidarity, and freedom.
Even when others attempt to thwart our efforts to build up a
just society, we must remember that we are the Lord’s own.
Even as those against us may attempt to destroy our bodies as
we endeavor to develop a just society, we must remember that
because we are the Lord’s own, they will not be able to destroy
our souls. We must continue to trust in God and proclaim our
faith boldly. In life, as in death, we belong to the Lord.
CATHOLIC CHARITIES OF CENTRAL TEXAS is available to help
during this time of financial stress. They offer financial stability
services to help prevent homelessness and achieve financial
security through case management, education, and emergency
financial assistance. For information, call (512) 651-6100.
